Dorney Park - 2008

A few weekends ago we got to take the kids to Dorney Park (a big shout out to my sister-in-law Mischele for hooking us up with free tickets every year. Love ya biznitch).

We met up with my brother-in-law Chris, Mischele's 2 youngest children (Lexi and Karyssa), Steve and Tina. The weather that day could not have been more PERFECT for a day at an amuzement park.......cool but not cold, sunny but not hot, overcast but not raining.

The funniest part of the whole day for me was when Jennifer saw Linus (the Peanuts character who carries around a blue blanket.) She ran up to him and showed him HER blanket that she carries around all the time, and they switched blankies for a minute. I could tell that she was a bit concerned that she wouldn't get hers back.....so she quickly snatched it back from him. It was too cute.

Steph still gets a little bit nervous about going on some rides and flat out refuses to go on anything that she deems the least bit scary or too fast (although she has been on them before, she actually shed a tear on the swings this time). If you don't believe me....check out this shot I got of Steph riding the kiddie roller coaster that day. Totally mortified is what I would use to describe her expression.



Jen on the other hand is game for anything. She was pretty annoyed at us when we told her she was too small to go on the huge roller coasters. Talk about no fear........I bet she would sky dive if we gave her the chance. I think this shot was taken just after I said "No upside down rides for you young lady"........then she threw out the "loser" sign at me. She's only 3. I'm in big trouble.



Of course all the kids had a great time on the rides and eating all the associated junk food. Here are some pics from our fun day!
